Embroidery on stitched garments (jeans) Is it possible?

Hello everybody,

I would like to know if there's any way we can make embroidery on the jeans that are already stitched. Big areas of embroidery are damaged during industrial washing and it's not possible to sandpaper over embroidery to create various effects. So we need to stitch a garment first, wash it and then make embroidery.

Any suggestions? Please let me know

Thanks!
